Pierce trades pills with Starburns and starts tripping balls. Shirley is determined to hurt Professor Slater to defend Britta's honor. Abed plays Batman, who just might save the day.
Best Lines
Jeff: Are you trying to get formidable with me?
Annie: It worked on Pierce.
Jeff: Infomercials work on, Pierce.
Jeff (while Annie is crying): This won't work. The last time you did this, I saved a vial of your tears, and have slowly been building up an immunity.
Annie: I was so unpopular in high school, the crossing guard used to lure me into traffic.
Troy: Can I ask you something I always wanted to ask the real Batman.
Abed (dressed as Batman): Ya.
Troy: Am I good-looking?
Abed: You are a very attractive young man.
Troy: I knew it.
Troy: That's one of my biggest fears.
Abed: What is?
Troy: If I ever, like, woke up as a doughnut.
Abed:You would eat yourself.
Troy: I wouldn't even question it.
Britta: Whoa. Yippee ki-yay. Thought you weren't a costume guy.
Jeff: You had to have one to get in here, squirrel.
Britta: Oh. So where did you get it? Because I wouldn't think that any costume stores would be open this late.
Jeff: I don't know what you're getting at.
Britta: The words you are looking for are, "I own a cowboy outfit." And it is tight too. Did you buy it like that? Your toy gun to my head, I'd say yes.
Professor Slater: I have to admit, this outfit is doing it for me. I may or may not have been deflowered by a junior rodeo champion.
Shirley: That's right Professor Slim Calves. This is what you get when you steal Jeff from a good woman.
Shirley: To teach that long neck, weave having bank teller she can't steal another woman's man, that's why.
Jeff: Pierce, I don't know how you spent the first 60 years, but I know in the last two months, you;'ve probably doubled the national average for amount of life lived per lifetime.
Random Thingamajigs
Pierce calls his mom on accident. She tells him that his father's ghost won't leave her alone. Pierce's father is not dead, as shown in Season 2.
Abed is a perfect Batman.
Starburns can't pee.
Troy's outtakes on the DVD are amazing on this episode. He asks Batman a whole bunch of questions and also makes some hilarious jokes when telling Jeff that Pierce is tripping.
Final Grade
87% A great episode. It's always cool to see the characters dressed up in costumes, but yet, the greatest part of this episode is the humanity it shows. Shirley come to terms that her husband cheated on her (after taking an antennae of Slater's car), and finds peace. Pierce tries to be young but discovers he doesn't need to act that way to fit in. Abed steals the show, as Batman. His long line about being Batman near the end was executed perfectly. Best one so far.
